Tux on, tux on, tux on, tux on, tux on      He has eyes down at the bingo on that lucky Friday night   The match was rained off Saturday but the panel came in bright   And on Sunday your mates were toasting you   With champagne down the pub   And on Monday you went to London to pick the check up with your mum      You had a tux on, you had a tux on   The first time you had a tux on, lucky man      There's a photo on the mantelpiece, when you bought your first guitar   And your girlfriend came to see you when you were the rising star   You knew your luck was holding when you filled the local hall   The first time and the last time that you thought you had control      You had a tux on, lucky man, you had a tux on   You got a tux on, tux on      Now you're touring stadiums, you've let it go too far   Standing with your manager, your back to every bar   Burning all your credit cards, chopping out the pain   Crowding into toilets with a host of your new-found friends      You got a tux on, nothing's changed, you got a tux on   Lucky man with a tux on, you're still the same with a tux on      It was eyes down in the parlor, they prayed it wouldn't rain   A brother pulled his cuffs down to hide the blue-black vein   His razor'd more than lines out, they found him just too late   The final performance, the main man lies in state      With a tux on, look at him now with a tux on   The last time with a tux on, take him away with a tux on      Somewhere in a tenement, in a well-thumbed magazine   Someone finds a photograph that triggers of a dream   The uniform that symbolizes the comfortable life   He's always known his luck's in, but now he's found the drive      He's got a tux on, look at him now with a tux on   He's gonna get one with a tux on, free admission with a tux on   Get it anyway with a tux on   He's got a tux on, the easy way with a tux on, tux on
